I mean i'm not going to pretend that people shouldn't be upset by it but sometimes i think people lose perspective.
I don't get why people think it's ok to say that people who are cruel to animals should be killed. Maybe that animal was cruel to other animals, what then?

I am wondering what the legalities are here - killing a 2 day old fawn by hitting it over the head and stamping on it would be pretty quick and I would possibly suggest legal on common ground?

How about culling? Where is the diffference between farmers who shoot dozens of rabbits and do not eat them?
